Multe chestii or să iasă la iveală după ce pică și ce a mai rămas din influența rusească din zona asta cu adevărat.

SMTube still seems to exist

The military-industrial complexes always have something to gain in wars (provided they manage to adapt in time). But there’s no other alternative industry that can supply the needed hardware to win a war, when an invasion happens. It just seems that’s all what our species can do best: kicking each other, then having a rest for a few dozen years and starting over.

There are not, and probably will never be, as they require proprietary blobs (e.g. see this issue in Catima)

No, I don’t think it will go like that.

But if piracy would go away, then it would mean we live in a great world:

  • Software: FOSS/Freeware/Donationware software prevails. People want to use this kind of software, and this is the go-to for any appliance. People would be deeply affected if they could not use free (as both in freedom and/or money, as mentioned before) software - gone will be the days of everyone needing Adobe products or MS Office for their professional work, and the year of the Linux desktop would be in the history books.
  • Movies and TV shows: They would be available anywhere, on demand, in any format. Or there would be this website where you would go to and watch whatever you would, without ads. It would kinda be the same with music.
  • p0rn: I don’t have enough knowledge in this field, I just go to certain websites when I need. Guess it would be like on the previous point? idk.

As long as those points are not achieved, there will always be a need for piracy, and people will always find new ways to get their content. So far, I do not see us being somewhere even close to that ideal world, so there are plenty of reasons for piracy to exist.

I personally try to pirate things more ethically, for example I try to buy music and games whenever I can, but I know several people that pirate stuff just because they can.

Something like that. I always heard it from my parents and grandparents that “it’s with fleas” or “you can see with fleas” when that happened. I never knew what was the link between those, but it sounds funny all the time, lol.

Friendica is really versatile. To get started, I’d suggest you watch @anubis2814a’s videos (on the tagged PeerTube account or on YouTube) in order to get used to all the functions on the platform. There’s also a Wiki on their website (and likely on the node you may choose) or you can post any question on !helpers

Cool app indeed. Sadly, I cannot log in on kbin.social. Is there anything you can do to fix this one? :D
